Our Distinctive Training in Integrative Counselling
At Life-Force School of Counselling, we offer distinctive and holistic training in Integrative Counselling. Our approach is rooted in a humanistic philosophy and the Rogerian approach, which prioritises empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard.
We believe in a non-directive, client-led practice where the therapeutic relationship is at the heart of meaningful change.
We encourage our students to develop their own style of counselling within the core integrative model we deliver.
